jump in head first in the shallow end

do you ever wonder why people try to do rediculous things that will just turn out badly? if you have no interest in something or no desire to be sucessful, then just dont do it. there has been a craze lately to get involved, and not in clubs, but get involved for experience; however, who monitors those people? does it seem fair that one individual can be more successful and do less work than you can? say you are smarter than them. say you are more capable at doing the work they are doing, but you have different work to do, you have serious work, and theirs is just imitation. they finish, you dont. does that mean that they are better/more successful than you? it seems like that to others, and granted there are very few people that can tell the difference, yet those people dont take the final look. furthermore, what if you do all their work for them, and they still get the credit. what if you do all their work they cant, and while they are doing something they can do, they sit there distracting you, preventing you from getting your own project done. is this fair? why does this exist? why are people so low as to take the success of one person, and the will and ambition of that person, and manipulate them to demise. tear them apart. bring them down. how does it always end like this?
